114 +Let's begin dissecting the report and the data it provides. Remember, again, that the Outcome Comparison report aims to provide you with critical assessment information and results about a specific domain (and its items) over any period of time and reason for assessment.
115 +
116 +__Top__
117 +
118 +* the title of the report is featured prominently at the center of the first page
119 +* many of the parameters you entered are also included for your ease of remembrance (this includes the period of time you indicated was of interest, the OUs you selected, the domain you are investigating (and the question items associated with that domain), and the status of clients you chose.
120 +
121 +__Bottom__
122 +
123 +* your report includes a time stamp of the exact date and time the report was ordered.
124 +
125 +__Middle (DATA)__
126 +
127 +
128 +
129 +* First, note that the data are divided into two sides: one side for each reason for assessment
130 +* Also, there is an arrow drawn to reaffirm the utility of the report in assessing change from one reason for assessment to the next
131 +* Because we checked off the "aggregate OU" box for this example, all OUs are represented in the data.
132 +* Because there were 4 people who met all the criteria we set out in our parameters, 4 appears as the total for all rows.
133 +* Because we selected 0,1,2, and 3 as acceptable scores, this report generates a column for each of those options and shows us the number and percentage of individuals who fell into those buckets.
134 +* Because we chose "Culture" as our domain, the results for it (and its items) are shown.
135 +
136 +The rows thus represent the assessment items.
137 +
138 +The columns represent the scores for those items.
139 +
140 +The intersection of the two offers a data point, such as the number of individuals who responded with a score of 2 for the "Identity" item.
141 +
142 +To make a comparison, all you need to do is compare these data points. For example, 2 individuals had a score of "1" for language during the initial assessment, but 0 had the same score for the discharge. Note also that the 0 column (for scores) went from 2 initially to 4 later. This kind of comparison allows you to gauge progress and development.
